Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) offers a variety of scholarship options for students, including merit-based, need-based, and talent-specific awards. Merit scholarships, such as the Presidential Scholarship, recognize academic excellence and are automatically considered during admission. Need-based aid requires FAFSA submission to determine eligibility.
RIT also provides scholarships for underrepresented groups, like the Destler/Johnson Rochester City Scholars Program. Additionally, departmental scholarships cater to specific majors, while external scholarships are available through organizations. Students should explore RIT’s financial aid website and consult their academic department for tailored opportunities. Early application and thorough research maximize chances of securing funding.
